Howdie

Just checking in to say a quick hello from the bowels of deal-land. First, I want to take this opportunity to thank Joseph Britt for the excellent job he's doing over here as a guest blogger. It's very much appreciated.(ed. note: Oh, and Joe, I can't seem to E-mail you at your comcast account--E-mail always bounces back. Do you have an alternate address where I can reach you?) Anyway, if JEB is up for it, I hope he'll be happy to keep on guest-blogging for another week or two into early May. Thereafter, I look to be lining up another guest-blogger (though this isn't yet confirmed). He's a Paris-based corporate attorney for a UK "magic circle" firm. He's American, voted Kerry, and is well to the left of me, but he's a fine writer and may have an interesting perspective to share with us over here at B.D. So we'll see...

And me? I'm still consumed by the day job and have greatly enjoyed not having to face the added self-inflicted pressure of blogging into the wee hours. After the deal I'm on closes--I will have a lot of overseas travel and a move to New York to grapple with (just closing on an apartment in lower Manhattan is already proving quite challenging!). So it will be very busy still. But I do anticipate posting here and there mid-Mayish. Until then, please keep enjoying Joseph Britt and, perhaps, an anonymous (necessarily, as the Firm might freak!) Paris-based American lawyer in the not too distant future.

A bientot,

Greg D.

GD, I've e-mailed an alternate address to you and to our mutual friend in Berlin. Let me know if you got it, via e-mail or phone. Rolling down your window and yelling also works, however this is a really hard way to communicate and is deservedly out of fashion:-)

It's "Howdy," not "howdie." Duh, I'm a New Englander living in Berkeley and _I_ know that.
